How to export data in CFD-Post

jpina · July 8, 2015, 12:37

Hello everybody,

I have carried out a transient simulation and now I'm interested in exporting the velocity values of a control line that I have defined.

I'm interested in obtaining a table where each column is a time step and with as many rows as nodes in the control line.

My final aim is to import this data into a matrix in Matlab and there carry out some calculations.

I will appreciate your help.

shouldnt there be some options in the Postprocessor? Display the graph and export data? Worse comes to worse you get a .txt file and you have to massage it a bit in Excel.
